PRINCESS GALITZIN NO. 4.
She Was Won at the Gaming-TabIe
by the Much-NIarried Nobleman.

Paris Letter to Chicago Tribune.
Prince Serge Galitzin, they say, is to
be married again. This will be his
fourth wife, and the other three are all
living. What a picturesque rascal Prince
Serge is! Though don't know that he
is much worse than plenty other Russian
n0blemen, including some grand dudes.
Prince Serge, indeed, comes of an an
cient and noble family, not very dis
family akin to royalty. He is also, or
was, enormously rich. His first wife
was a Bohemian beer-garden singer.
He heard her in a saloon at Moscow,
took a fancy to her pretty face and mar
ried her. She was pretty certainly, and
sang fairly well. But she was of peas
ant birth, ignorant and of questionable
occupation, though there are some honest
girls among saloon prima dome. Still,
fancy she was the better of the two.
After time Prince Serge got tired of
her and wanted a divorce. He couldn't
bring anything against her, however, to
entitle him to it, and she declined to
kick over the matrimonial traces to
oblige him. So he determined to drive
her to get divorce from him.
This he did by bringing notori-
Gus woman into the house and
behaving toward her in the grossest
manner under the very eyes of his wife.
AS result she got divorce from him,
the Russian court decreeing that she
should retain the title of princess Galit-
Yin, together with the Priceless GalitZin
jewels and the great GalitZin palace at
Moscow, and that he should not marry
again. The princess is still living at
Moscow with her children in wealth
and honor. But in defiance of the de-
cree Prince Serge went right off and
married again, this time to French
lady. OF course the marriage was not
legal, but that didn't matter. He stuck
to her a year and then got tired, and
forced her also to divorce him. But he
had to pay for this divorce, too, the
court decreeing her an indemnity of
S100,000, which she got and OH which
she is now living merry life here in
Paris. a month or so later Prince Serge
picked up wife No. 3 at Monte Carlo.
He went to Italy with her in the winter
and in the summer took her to one of his
Russian estates in the TOula district.
But time has sealed ever her attractions,
and they say he is going to make her di-
vOrce him, so that he can get fourth
wife. No. 4, by the way, he also got at
Monte Carlo. He was in the gambling
saloon there with another Russian
prince Of similar proclivities. They no.
ticcd q handsome woman ut the other
end of The table. 81 would like to marry
her." remarked Serge. $50 would -
replied his comrade. "Well," said
Serge, ''lct us decide which OF us shall
have her. Let us begin with 10000 ru-
bles and play for half an hour, and the
ono who, at the end of that time, has the

When | could collect my senses and
my breath, told her the story from be-

been. She solemnly asserted that she
never had sent me amy bundle by any

have forgotten it.
And that was perfectly true. She could
not have forgotten it had she sent me IL

From that day to this it has remained
an absolute mystery. The word of Mrs.
Bowen is not to be disputed, neither is
the word of Mr.. Haven.
There have been "A great many eY-

have gone there from the Brunswick"
